Lyrics

[00:03.38] What's happenin', sister?
[00:06.99] Yeah baby,I'm talkin' to you.
[00:11.02] My name's Bones.
[00:14.16] And I'm a Libra, a dig sunsets,
[00:18.86] and strolling on the beach,
[00:22.07] and loving my neighbor as myself.
[00:25.30] And right now, baby, I'm standing next door to you.
[00:33.66]
[00:33.77] Picture you and me one sweet, sweet night
[00:39.30] in a pool of votive candlelight.
[00:44.78] Just one thing could make the mood more right –
[00:49.47] God droppin' in to sing like Barry White.
[00:55.63] Hey, lady in the long black dress,
[01:01.12] let's give you something to confess.
[01:05.30] Wo oh oh! Hey lady, take a good long glance.

[01:13.40] I'm a stone cold master of romance!
[01:17.22]
[01:17.48] [That ain't no way to get a lady, honky.
[01:21.55] Here's how you talk to a sister: ave, baby.

[01:35.55] Well put away that rosary, girl,
[01:38.21] 'cause I'm here to sweep you off your knees
[01:41.11] and take you to a place that I like to call TJ Town. So…
[01:46.92]
[01:47.49] Loosen up those vestments, just a bit.
[01:52.91] Drop that Bible, baby yeah, that's it.
[01:57.91] See, I know what all your vows permit –
[02:02.70] and I don't mind keepin' it immaculate!
